'Garbage' Film

October 5, 1986

I HAVE BEEN to the Magic Kingdom often enough to have seen all the worthwhile shows. I was passing the Captain EO theater when the door was open. A seat was welcome after a long day. I should have known better.

The 3-D movie process has been hailed in some quarters as if it is the greatest innovation since the wheel. Actually, 3-D movies were made decades ago and used a similar type of viewing eyepiece. But the sound volume then was not the mind-smashing decibels of Captain EO. I'm no Michael Jackson fan and the film's concept is ridiculous. The people who profit are the hearing aid salesmen.

The only redeeming feature is that the movie is short -- but not short enough.

I amazed that the ''always perfect'' Disney organization would stoop to presenting this type of garbage.
